I need a checkpoint and GetComponent script please

I'm making a 3d horror game and need a checkpoint script where when you collide with a monster it would teleport you to the checkpoint. I also need a GetComponent script where when you go into an area a script titled "Flashlight" is set false. Thanks, I'm new and don't know these things.

 

Welcome! I recommend you start here: Learning

Luckily there are some great tutorials (also on Youtube) for doing almost EXACTLY the above things.

 

Hi there, here is my approach, so first of all
1- Create an empty game object + add a box colllider to it and check the is trigger option
2- Duplicate that empty game object and assign this script to it

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class CheckPoint : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public bool IsPassed { get; private set; }
6.  
7.     private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D collision)
8.     {
9.         var player = collision.GetComponent<PlayerMovement>();
10.         if(player != null)
11.         {
12.             IsPassed = true;
13.         }
14.     }
15. }
16.  

3- Try to edit the script, add the script movement of your monster etc.
4- Create a second empty game object and name it as a checkPointManager, and drag and drop all other checkpoints as children.
5- Add this second script to checkPointManager

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Linq;
3.  
4. public class CheckPointManager : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     private CheckPoint[] CheckPoint;
7.  
8.     void Start()
9.     {
10.         CheckPoint = GetComponentsInChildren<CheckPoint>();
11.     }
12.  
13.     public CheckPoint LastCheckPoint()
14.     {
15.         return CheckPoint.Last(T => T.IsPassed);
16.     }
17.  
18. }
19.  

6- Now go to your game manager script and assign this 3rd script where we will assign the position of the checkpoint to the player.

Code (CSharp):

1.     private void SendPlayerToChecPoint()
2.     {
3.         var checkPointManager = FindObjectOfType<CheckPointManager>();
4.         var checkPoint = checkPointManager.LastCheckPoint();
5.         var player = FindObjectOfType<PlayerMovement>();
6.  
7.         player.transform.position = checkPoint.transform.position;
8.     }

7- Enjoy

 

Thank you so much! This really helps me!

 

One thing I have to ask is how to you get to the checkpoint once you hit an object?

 

u can create empty on checkpoint and then move player to this spot?

 

Just create an empty object and duplicate them, then place those empty objects wherever you like.
